REVIEW
"Ronen is the type of guide you would want to have guide you during your trip. I came away from this trip with more than I had expected. I felt that I was able to see Israel through a perspective I had not imagined and it left me relating this experience to others back at home."

"I had an unforgettable time. What made the trip even more incredible was our trip leader, Ronan! He was very knowledgeable and had answers to virtually any question I had. Whether we were in Golan Heights or Jerusalem, Ronan had a story to share and insight to shed. I feel lucky to have had him as a trip leader and hope I can explore Israel with his guidance again in the near future."

"Thank you for enabling me to open my eyes a little wider, and to finally understand what is so *magical* about Israel. Your passion and expertise provided our group with a compass to navigate the great spiritual journey that is Birthright. It’s difficult to put to words the specialness of this trip—the feeling of homecoming in a place so far from home. But you did have the words. Your stories threaded Israel into the fabric of my Jewish identity, and for this I am very grateful."

"Ronen is a highly talented tour guide with a fervor for making both first time and repeat visitors bond with Israel. He led a group tour of my MBA students during Spring Break over the past two years; including both business-related visits as well as typical sightseeing visits. Ronen’s grasp of history, religion and politics was evident and was a huge part of my student’s positive experience and new appreciation for Israel. The majority of my students are non-Jewish and Ronen was able to answer questions from all perspectives – including several international students who had little knowledge of either Judaism or Christianity. Ronen has a great sense of humor and connected both with the students and faculty. Many of my students made lasting connections with him (my wife and I included). Needless to say, we are using him on our third upcoming trip to Israel…"

"He helped me experience Israel for the first time, but also to discover within myself a connection to the place and to the people that was thousands of years old. Birthright with Ronen wasn't a field trip, or a vacation -- it was a once-in-a-lifetime event that had more fun, learning, and meaning packed into ten days than most people get in ten years. We laughed, we cried, and we reminded ourselves why we care about this place, and our people, so much. I wish everyone visiting Israel for the first time, or for the tenth time, could be lucky enough to go with Ronen and see it through his eyes. I'm thankful that I did."
